The Latest Addition to the Breakout Franchise from Atari Launches under the Zynga Partners for Mobile Program

LOS ANGELES & SAN FRANCISCO – Oct. 11, 2012 – Atari, one of the world’s most recognized publishers and developers of interactive entertainment, and Zynga (NASDAQ: ZNGA), the world’s leading provider of social game services, today announced the launch of Super Bunny Breakout™ on the App Store. Available for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch, Super Bunny Breakout is the latest and furriest experience of the Breakout® franchise, where players control Rodney the bunny on a quest to help rescue other cute critters from cages at the nefarious Evil Animal Testing (E.A.T.) Labs. In this new take on the retro arcade classic, players will meet a colorful cast of characters and enjoy physics-based, Breakout-style gameplay. Super Bunny Breakout is available now for $0.99 on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, along with a free demo version called Super Bunny Breakout Free.

In Super Bunny Breakout, players control Rodney—a daredevil rabbit with an appetite for revenge—launching him from a laboratory platform as he bounces around to destroy different structures and cages. Players can either collect or purchase coins via in-app purchase to feed critters and restore energy. Coins can also be used to purchase additional power-ups, food and cosmetic goods.

Super Bunny Breakout features include:

Infiltrate E.A.T. Labs in order to break the cages and free all your imprisoned buddies.

Unlock five handsome playable characters each with their own special super attacks.

Unleash unique power-up abilities for each Super Critter including Time Warp, Anti-Gravity abilities and more!

Show your friends who’s the bunny boss with Game Center integration for score leaderboards and achievements.
